The Central States Law Schools Association (CSLSA) is hosting its annual conference September 24-25, 2010 and is actively soliciting law faculty to present papers and works in progress. This year's conference will be held at the University of North Dakota School of Law in Grand Forks, ND. (Having been to a conference there before, I can attest to the beauty of the campus and the ease of getting in and out of the area.) The CSLSA conference is a wonderful, informal environment in which to receive interdisciplinary feedback on a work in progress. The deadline to submit proposals is August 31, 2010. An abstract of no more than 500 words should be sent to Professor Wes Oliver at Widener. More details and contact information can be found at the CSLSA website.

There is no registration fee. If your school is a member of CSLSA, the conference will pay for one night's lodging. Several meals are also included. So in this time of tight budgets, the CSLSA is also a great deal!
